The 2009 Joe Shuster Award nominees, presented to the best in Canadian comics, have been announced. It’s a long list, so see them all in the cut. More info, including the nominee committees here.

Between January and March 2009, the Nominees were selected from master lists of eligible works originally published in English and/or French in 2008. Canadian citizens living at home or abroad, as well as permanent residents were eligible for consideration. Now that the list of nominees has been finalized, nominated creators will have their work reviewed by a jury, who will ultimately decide the winners. Winners will be announced at a public ceremony in Toronto on June 27th, 2009.

And here’s a general suggestion for all comicbook awards… Within the rules and requirements, allow for the online display of no more than three pages, with links to the artist, publisher, or website nominated.

If your mission is to publicize the best of the medium, then why not publicize it everywhere?
